Hotels near Parrocchia San Bartolomeo, Brescia

I chose to stay at the Centro Paolo VI when I booked a trip to Italy at short notice, inspired by the good reviews on Trippadvisor. My experience was predominantly positive. Room was clean, with good air-conditioning. The furnishings were simple. The bed was, perhaps, a little too firm for my taste, and a bit low for a bloke with a bad knee. :-) Lighting in the bedroom might have been a bit brighter. The bathroom was clean, although, as mentioned by some other reviews, the shower was a bit tight. The building is a bit of a mixture. In part, it is a grand baroque palace, but other parts are much more functional. It has clearly been in institutional use for a long time. I gather that, before taking on its present function in 1975, it had been a seminary. It remains a church foundation, and functions mainly as a conference centre, offering meeting rooms for far more more people than it could accommodate overnight. Its lifts, as remarked in some less positive reviews, are decidedly old-fashioned but were perfectly adequate to get me and my luggage up and down, which is, after all, the only thing you need a lift to do. So far as food is concerned, breakfast was served in buffet style, with staff bringing coffee or tea to guests at their tables. Weather permitting, breakfast can be eaten outside in the garden. What was less helpful about the very obvious conference centre purpose was the situation about evening meals. For the first four evenings of my stay, I ate in the restaurant. Choice was a bit limited, but the food was tasty and served by a friendly waiter. On the fifth night, a Sunday, I cheerfully set off to the restaurant, only to find it closed. Not only is it always closed on Sundays, it was now closed for a summer break until 28 August! This is NOT notified on the web site, nor any any notice displayed in the building. This may make perfect sense for a conference centre in a period when nobody is arranging conferences, but is awkward for holiday accommodation. The building is in a quiet area, but is served by buses on neighbouring streets. Brescia's complex one-way system means that, for example, the 12 from the station stops one street away at the front, but the bus going towards the station stops a couple of streets to the rear. It is only about 5 minutes' walk to the biggest cultural site of the city, the Santa Giulia Museum, and other places of interest are within walking distance. Staff were invariably friendly and helpful. Incidentally, if you are going by car, booking directly with the institutions gets free parking in a safe, enclosed yard.

The hotel is located on the nearby road to the centre, so comfortable to visit the city, walking. The informal and tendency-based environment has been voted on the modern approach to the offer of services. The room is not very large and has essential furniture that is comfortable for one night. Clean room. Adequate and clean bathroom.

The hotel, a few minutes walk from the station along the underground passage, is located directly at the exit. The staff is friendly and courteous, the rooms are nice, equipped with every comfort and above all, totally soundproofed. The window of my room on the 10th floor looked directly onto the tracks and I didn't hear a sound, not only at night, but also when the normal and intense circulation of trains resumed. Furthermore, the price is unbeatable considering the quality of the structure and the strategic position, convenient first and foremost for the station, but also for the centre, reachable in 15 minutes on foot.

When you go through, you can book directly, and occasionally stay for one night, you can only say the standard of Novotel.

This Hotel (which is a Motel not a Hotel) is the worst nightmare I have ever experienced in a lifetime spent traveling the world over! Parking under the Hotel “at your own risk. The Hotel takes no responsibilities for thefts.” The A/C was not working at all - in a night of scorching heat (30 degrees Celsius), I called the Front Desk several times, they always told me they would look into it and resolve the issue and would get back to me/never did! DIDN’T SLEEP ALL NIGHT LONG because of the heat and stickiness in the room! In the morning I tried to take a shower: ONLY COLD WATER in the room! In the morning I went to complain at the Reception: very rude and arrogant personnel. At 7:15am I showed up at the Breakfast Buffet, literally NOTHING WAS LEFT! They told me “because they had a Group of Chinese that just had breakfast”. Please NO B.S. - I have never seen such an embarrassing scene (for the Hotel!) all my life!

The rooms were very clean, tidy and the staff were smiling and happy to help. The check in was pretty quick, like the check out. The area where it's located is pretty convenient since there's a superstore almost next to it. Thank you for this amazing stay!

Leading a business trip Ctrip hotel, the price is very fair, similar to the domestic chain hotel, but the environment is good, the service is good, you can directly request the invoice, it is convenient

Seconda volta in questa struttura. Si conferma un’ottima esperienza. Camera in ordine, spaziosa. Condizionatore funzionante e non troppo rumoroso. Ottimo isolamento acustico, la prima volta eravamo lato parcheggio hotel, questa volta retro, quindi lato autostrada. Fino a che non abbiamo aperto le finestre, nessun rumore. Colazione internazionale, quindi per tutti i gusti.

Siamo stati 3 notti per motivi lavorativi nella Fiera dell' Elettronica. Innanzitutto, miei complementi a tutto il personale del hotel Garda, educatissimi, sempre disponibile, e pronti a soluzionare i problemi (avevo perso la chiave de la stanza). Ampio parcheggio. La colazione super abbondante, molto variata e di qualità. La cena con prezzi onesti. Proporrei per migliorare: la climatizzazione, per me troppo calda, il materasso dal letto matrimoniale poco confortevole, ed mi avrebbe piaciuto anche qualche elettrodomestico nella stanza, come un bollitore elettrico per prepararmi il tè o il mate (bevanda argentina) Il resto, tutto eccellente!
